Sever21 [200]4 years ago

Answer:

The sound intensity is reduced by a factor of 1995.26

Explanation:

When comparing two sound intensities, the intensity level is measured in the unit of decibel or dB. The intensity of the threshold of hearing for a human being is  10^−12 W/m^2 . When the intensity level is zero, it means that the sound intensity is the same as the threshold of hearing.

The reduced sound intensity level is given as 33 dB, so

10  log (I/Io)  = - 33

I  : intensity of the sound

Io ( =   10^−12 W/m^2): threshold of hearing

So, the intensity ratio is

I/Io = 10^-3.3

     = 5.01 x 10^-4

1/ 5.01 x 10^-4 = 1995.26

For the following conditions determine whether a CMFR or a PFR is more efficient in removing a reactive compound from the waste
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

The PFR is more efficient in the removal of the reactive compound as it has the higher conversion ratio.

Xₚբᵣ = 0.632

X꜀ₘբᵣ = 0.5

Xₚբᵣ > X꜀ₘբᵣ

Explanation:

From the reaction rate coefficient, it is evident the reaction is a first order reaction

Performance equation for a CMFR for a first order reaction is

kτ = (X)/(1 - X)

k = reaction rate constant = 0.05 /day

τ = Time constant or holding time = V/F₀

V = volume of reactor = 280 m³

F₀ = Flowrate into the reactor = 14 m³/day

X = conversion

k(V/F₀) = (X)/(1 - X)

0.05 × (280/14) = X/(1 - X)

1 = X/(1 - X)

X = 1 - X

2X = 1

X = 1/2 = 0.5

For the PFR

Performance equation for a first order reaction is given by

kτ = In [1/(1 - X)]

The parameters are the same as above,

0.05 × (280/14) = In (1/(1-X)

1 = In (1/(1-X))

e = 1/(1 - X)

2.718 = 1/(1 - X)

1 - X = 1/2.718

1 - X = 0.3679

X = 1 - 0.3679

X = 0.632

The PFR is evidently more efficient in the removal of the reactive compound as it has the higher conversion ratio.

creativ13 [48]

Answer:

(a) 1.90 kpsi

(b) 0.40 kpsi

(c) 0.61 in.

(d) 0.009

(a) 8 MPa

(b) 1.30 cm⁴

(c) 2.04 cm⁴

(d) 62.2 MPa

Explanation:

(a) σ = M/Z, where M = 1770 lbf·in and Z = 0.943 in³.

1770/0.943 = 1876.988 lbf/in² = 1.90 kpsi

(b) σ = F/A, where F = 9440 lbf and A = 23.8 in².

9440 /23.8 = 396.639 lbf/in² = 0.4 kpsi

(c) y = Fl³/(3EI)

F = 270 lbf

l = 31.5 in.

E = 30 Mpsi

I = 0.154 in.⁴

y = 270×31.5³/(3×30×10⁶×0.154) = 0.61 in.

(d) θ = Tl/(GJ), where T = 9740 lbf·in, l = 9.85 in. G = 11.3 Mpsi, and d = 1.00 in.

J = π·d⁴/32 = π/32 in.⁴

∴ θ = 9740  × 9.85 /(11.3 × 10⁶× π/32) = 0.009

(a) σ = F/wt, where F = 1 kN, w = 25 mm, and t = 5 mm

∴ σ = 1000/(0.025 × 0.005) = 8 MPa

(b) I = bh³/12, where b = 10 mm and h = 25 mm.

10×25³/12 = 1.30 cm⁴

(c) I = π·d⁴/64 where d = 25.4 mm.

I = π × 25.4⁴/64 = 2.04 cm⁴

(d) τ = 16×T/(π×d³), where T = 25 N·m, and d = 12.7 mm.

16×25/(π×0.0127³) = 62.2 MPa.
